One of the most beautiful actresses of her time, Grace Kelly remains an icon today. Her life and career are well documented, from her work in Hollywood to her marriage to Prince Rainier and tragic death in a car accident.

But who really was she? Thanks to an exclusive agreement with the Principality of Monaco, this documentary tell Grace’s life story through the eyes of those closest to her, including her family – notably Prince Albert of Monaco – and friends.

For the first time, the Grimaldi family has given access to its private archives, including many home movies shot by Grace and Prince Rainier. They reveal a woman quite different from the official image, surrounded by her children and participating in family life.
